Try, try again

Exciting new... Years 3-6 have entered into a Writing Stars Poetry Competition. This entails writing a poem on one of our 4 learning powers, resilience! It must be titled 'Try, try again.' However, it is entirely up to the children how they choose to approach the poem: it could be an acrostic poem, it could be a rhyming poem, it could be free verse.

Judging the poems produced are not only laureates and poets, but two very famous footballers, Frank Lampard and Yannick Bolasie. 


The winner of this competition has some very exciting treats in store: an exclusive awards ceremony, a poet/author visit for our school and (perhaps most excitingly) Premier League kit, the Premier League trophy and their poem read out on TV by a Premier League footballer.

Classes have received writing lines to construct their poems on. If they have not, send them to Miss Taylor in Willow where they can retrieve more. The deadline for this competition is Friday 15th December. 

Good luck. I know we have a winner in Broadford...
